usually that would point to a vacuum leak of some sort - which is pronounced at idle. You should be pulling about 18-22hg at idle (roughly -10 PSI). maybe the pop you heard was a mis-fire and it knocked something loose or popped a small hole in a line.

You can test your manifold vacuum with a gauge.
